If in the future I should run again Deep Firewall scan because I will install new programs and I'll wish to scan them, should I delete all rules first or I can simply run the scan and Deep Firewall will add the rules for the new programs it will find ?

You can run a scan and it will just add the new programs. When you restart the application it performs rule deduplication and I will add cleanup soon so it gets rid of removed programs.

So, if I understand correctly, (sorry, English isn't my native language, I'm Italian) Deep Firewall scan doesn't create duplicate rules but currently it doesn't have a feature for purging rules that refers to programs / executable that don't exist anymore.

Yes, the auto-cleanup will be added to the next version.
